Elliot's Wish Trip... Video of our entire trip posted! (post 492)

[mommy2mrb]

We received an awesomely decorated package from Tim and family today!!

Trevor telling the kids it's empty....

Trevor trying to read letter, but Elliot is busy investigating the "empty" envelope

Elliot proving Trevor wrong!

Thank you so much Tim, Mel and Juliana!!!

We got a cool Toy Story gift card with a letter informing us that we must try Mickey ice cream bars at least once... no problem there!!! We will be happy to try them!! Also included were Disney Watercraft stickers and a pretty picture by Juliana... which Addison quickly snatched up and put on her wall next to Chiara's dd's picture, using the sticker as tape

After the picture was put up, Addison wanted to see pictures of Juliana... I made the mistake of showing her pictures from Tim's last update, which was full of Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique pictures and Addison is now dying to do that while we are there

Wow Tim did a great job decorating the envelope
Lucky, you got a Juliana original!!!
love the picture of Elliot when he found the GC!

ooops, looks like there might be a BBB trip in your future it really is a fun experience...Megan is doing it again on her bday!

 

[miprender]

Yeah... more Big Give items.

Sound like you are going to BBB We did this with DD in April and it was really cute.

Yesterday we received two more Big Give Packages!!

The first one was from Flora (Purple Ears) and it was for Elliot and Addison.

They LOVE these!! (I do too!!) Elliot actually screamed, "Me love it!!!" when he saw it! Thank you so much! They both wore them for the rest of the night!

I am glad the package arrived and Elliot and Addison enjoyed the outfits. Thank you for sharing the pictures - they made every single second I spent at the sewing machine worth it. I really like this last picture! I am sorry to read about all the medical appointments your family had lately - I hope everyone will stay healthy for the trip!

 

[that's nice]

Well, the Mickey bars was just a suggestion.

Juliana did all the stickers. We had a hard time finding 'boy' stickers. She has plenty of princes stickers.

After the picture was put up, Addison wanted to see pictures of Juliana... I made the mistake of showing her pictures from Tim's last update, which was full of Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique pictures and Addison is now dying to do that while we are there

WOOPS!!!

Well, I'm sure she deserves it! Don't forget the spa at GKTW!

 

[brookerene]

Yay for your BG! It's fun to see a BG from someone who gave a BG!

 

[snubie]

Sorry I haven't checked in sooner.....

So happy to see the big gives rollling in.

Only a few more weeks to go

Lisa was too ill to go to PT, soooo I get to see this update:

For Good scans!
I am SO sorry that you are all ill, I hope you get some meds to make you feel better soon!

So sorry to hear she was too ill for PT, hope she is doing better today!! I still have not made it to the doctor for me, it's still kind of mild and I am hoping it will pass without antibiotics this time. I get sinus infections so often it's sad to say that I usually know when they are bad enough to go to the doctor so I am still waiting...

Wow Tim did a great job decorating the envelope
Lucky, you got a Juliana original!!!

ooops, looks like there might be a BBB trip in your future it really is a fun experience...Megan is doing it again on her bday!

I'd love to take her to BBB but I am nervous about how much spending money we will have. If I take her, I'm sure Elliot would need the Prince package too We am extending our trip by two days so we can do everything we want and still have some time to see my mom so I am trying to save every dollar I can. I have scheduled two character meals too. How far in advance do I have to book BBB? Maybe I will know if it's possible once we find out how much the expense check will be?

Yeah... more Big Give items.

Sound like you are going to BBB We did this with DD in April and it was really cute.

I hope I can work it out, I know she'd love it!

Juliana did all the stickers. We had a hard time finding 'boy' stickers. She has plenty of princes stickers.

Alright!!! You all have twisted my arm!!! My mom and sister are going to come up and hang out with us all day on Saturday. I just decided that the boys will do their thing (Cessna, fish, who knows what else??) and the girls will do their own thing on Saturday. I made Addison an appointment at the Downtown Disney BBB for 5pm and I made dinner reservations for me, mom, my 14 year old sister and Addison at 1900 Park Fare at 8:20pm. I am not thrilled about the 8pm dinner time, but it's all that was available. I will keep checking for an earlier time, but if it is all we have, we'll just pre-eat I am keeping this a secret from Addison though She's been telling me how bad she wants to see Cinderella and Prince Charming together

Hi Christy, Just popped in to say Hi and see if I missed anything. Hope your weekend is going well!

Thank you! My weekend was filled with lots of work and little sleep... glad it is over, TGIM!!

 

[jj0plin]

We received another Big Give on Saturday, but didn't get to open it until Sunday (I was sleeping when it arrived/ darn 3rd shift ) This Big Give was from Dania (DisneyCP2002)....

Thank you so much!!! The little bags are so adorable!!! You did a great job on the autograph books too!! And the pens are a big hit, they each chose one to have now and the others to save for Disney. Thank you!!

 

[brookerene]
